Hi, I’m Kat,

I'm licensed therapist located in Weldon Spring, MO. If you find yourself feeling disconnected from your life, I might be able to help.

Trauma can look like so many things: childhood struggles, poverty, abuse, loss, discrimination, sudden illness, disability, or a sudden event that shook up your entire life. It can leave us feeling numb, overwhelmed or utterly disconnected from ourselves, sometimes for years at a time. It might look like chronic stress, irritability, struggling relationships or intense loneliness. While it might feel impossible to escape, there is hope for relief.

Through my work, I provide a blend of trauma-informed therapeutic approaches including trauma-informed CBT, cognitive processing therapy, EMDR, mindfulness and dialectical behavior therapy interventions. What this means is my clients and I work together to develop effective and usable skills that translate into everyday life. We create a non-judgmental space where real processing and lasting healing can happen.
